Introduction: Melanin refers to the group of natural pigments found in most organisms. It is produced through a multistage
chemical process known as melanogenesis, where the oxidation of the amino acid tyrosine is followed by polymerisation.
Special skin cells called melanocytes make melanin. Nocardiopsis species are an ecologically versatile and biotechnologically
important group of Actinomycetes. The members of this genus have established a place for themselves and are of considerable
value in producing compounds with profound bio medical applications
